Hilton Head Vacation Day 6: Harbor Town Lighthouse

This morning we decided to go to the private area of Hilton Head Island—Sea Pines. We learned that this area was planned as a secluded seaside resort where both residents and guests could enjoy the surroundings with a small environmental footprint. There are no buildings taller than the tallest tree around and all the buildings are painted in very earthy tones. It is a really nice area.

Once we arrived, we planned on taking the trolley, which would prevent us from having to navigate the area, search for parking, and get Cashlin in and out of vehicle. It also gave Cashlin an opportunity to ride the trolley! However, it took the trolley about an hour to arrive for the first pick-up, which was only supposed to take 20-30 minutes, and the only reason we stayed was that it was raining very hard.

It was still raining when we got to the Harbor Town shops, but it seemed as though it was soon to stop. Once it stopped, we toured the lighthouse. It was interesting and provided some good views of the harbor. We did not feel like going to any more shops, so we decided eat lunch and go back to the condo, where we watched a couple of movies and hung out the remainder of the evening.

Here are pictures from Harbor Town!
